What reading level is Latin Pronunciation book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
modern melhods of pronouncing Latin deliberately ignore quantity — a fundamental feature in the ancient system. A horror of "false quantities" is indeed inculcated, but by '-false quantity" is only T[iQ2Lni falsely placed accent, which is in no wise the only essential point In fact, if the quantities be properly observed, accent will take care of itself. Of course, the system pre-supposes practical familiarity with the quantity of all syllables in a word, and such knowledge requires long and pa...tient study. But if the pupil at the very outset is trained to carefully distinguish, in time of utterance, long and short vowels, and is drilled in the very valuable exercise of reading Latin aloud and of speaking memorized Latin, his progress will bs very rapid, and in due season he will be able to pronounce the master-pieces of Roman litera- ture with fluency, grace and approximate correctness. Certainly, only by such practice can we hope, with full intelligence, to enjoy the sono- rous movement and balance of Cicero's periods, the majestic march of the verse of Lucretius, and the exquisitely melodious cadences and wonderfully artistic blending of prolonged and shortened sounds in the lyrics of Catullus and of Horace.
